This Cookie Statement explains how Eskimo Jo Events uses cookies when you visit our site. It explains what these cookies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Eskimo Jo Events) are called "first party cookies". Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third party cookies". Third party cookies enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g. analytics).

Why do we use cookies?

Eskimo Jo Events uses first and may sometimes use third party cookies (if third party cookies are present for an event you will be advised in the “opt in” cookie statement when you join the site). Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our site to operate, and we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other third party cookies enable us to track and target the interests of our Users to enhance the experience on our site. Third parties serve cookies through our site for analytics. This is described in more detail below.

The specific types of first and third party cookies served through our site and the purposes they perform are described under "Essential 1st party cookies" and "Analytics and customisation cookies" below

Essential 1st party cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary to provide you with Services and to use some of the Site or Application.

How to refuse:
Because these cookies are strictly necessary to deliver the site to you, you cannot refuse them. You may block or delete them by changing your browser settings but you may not be able to use some of the features, and in some cases the site simply will not perform.

Analytics and customisation cookies

These cookies collect information that is used either in identifiable or aggregate form to help us understand how our site is being used, the effectiveness of marketing campaigns, or to help us customise our site for you.

What about other tracking technologies, like web beacons?

Cookies are not the only way to recognise or track visitors to a website. Web beacons (sometimes called "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs") are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognise when someone has visited our site or taken an action in relation to our site. We also facilitate our organisers ability to learn more about your interest in their event at their request through their use of these tracking pixels on our site. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly. As a result, declining cookies will impair their functioning.

What about targeted advertising?

We do not offer you 3rd party advertising however Organisers may employ technology that is used to measure the effectiveness of advertisements. This can be accomplished by them using cookies or web beacons to collect information about your visits to our site in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services of potential interest to you. The information collected through this process does not enable us or them to identify your name, contact details or other personally identifying details.

How can I control cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie preferences by clicking on the appropriate opt-out links provided you can set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. If you choose to reject cookies via your browser, you may still use our site although your access to some functionality may be restricted. As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser-to-browser, you should visit your browser's help menu for more information.

How often will you update this Cookie Statement?

We may update this Cookie Statement from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. Please therefore re-visit this Cookie Statement regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.

The date at the top of this Cookie Statement indicates when it was last updated.
